ECI Telecom, a global provider of networking infrastructure solutions,
today announced that Consorcio Energético
Punta Cana–Macao (CEPM), a privately-owned
energy consortium, has selected ECI’s optical
solution as it enters the rapidly growing telecommunications market in
the Dominican Republic. CEPM is building a new fiber network and has
chosen ECI to deliver the optical infrastructure to support the required
flexibility to meet increased traffic demands.

Utilizing ECI’s XDM Multi-Service
Provisioning and Transport Platform (MSPP/MSTP) solution, CEPM is
entering the carrier of carriers business, providing more opportunities
to its customers to leverage increased bandwidth needs. CEPM will
provide transport capacity from the Caribbean NAP, located in the Parque
Cibernético Santo Domingo, to the eastern
most part of the Dominican Republic, Punta Cana. ECI will supply CEPM
and its customers with WDM,
SONET
and Ethernet
capabilities to improve traffic and increase the number of available
services to the surrounding and expanding resorts and airports.

“As CEPM entered the telecom market, we
realized that ECI would be the best partner for us to meet the growing
demands for bandwidth and new services in the region,”
said Rolando Gonzalez-Bunster, President of CEPM. “ECI’s
XDM platform provides the most cost-effective solution for an efficient
migration to next-generation networks, enabling increased transport
capabilities for our new fiber network and improving connectivity across
the country. We look forward to working together as this network
continues to develop and we approach the next expansion phase.”

ECI’s XDM is a cost effective, easy to
operate solution that offers the flexibility and scalability necessary
for growing markets. CEPM’s deployment of ECI‘s
XDM strengthens its competitive edge while increasing its ability to
respond to growing bandwidth requirements as they arise.

“CEPM’s selection
of our XDM platform demonstrates the continuous success of our optical
solutions, as well as our suitability for a range of different markets,”
commented Rafi Maor, CEO & President of ECI Telecom. “ECI's
experience in the carrier of carriers' market will serve us well as we
support CEPM in its expansion into this business, and we will be able to
provide them with a smooth migration path for their needs and the
present and future requirements of their customers.”
